This Node-RED node will compare two inputs, then create output based on how the inputs differ.
Output functions include:
- Complement: What's in one input, but not the other
- Intersection: What's common in both inputs
- Union: Everything from both inputs
Drag and Drop the "Differences" node onto the canvas. Set the Left and Right input values to the source sets, set the Function value baed on how you want differences between the left and right sets treated, and the Output value to the destination property.
